The Kimball graphic. (Kimball, Brule County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1905, 1887-09-02

The Devils Lake Inter Ocean, a paper
published way up north, gives among
others the following very cogent reason
why Dakota should be divided:
There would BE- greater interest in leg
i~slative matters. The legislatures would
be more wieldy. there would be less
ground to cover. and consequently. our
legislators would be held to closer &C.
count for their actions, or their ION.
action. Our legislatures are lacking in
the essentials Of local responsibility.
A combination from the extreme south,
intent upon a measure whose effects and
and influences are totally foreign to the
needs and necessities OF the people OF
the extreme north, may obstruct legisla.
ton which is Of vital interest to other
sections. This has been too often the
case in the past. The measure which
affects the welfare of the mining region
OF the Back Hills is not understood OF
appreciated by the stockmcn ard wheat
raisers of the north. A bill which il
vital to the interest of the corr planters
OF extreme South Dakota will receive bu,
little consideration from those who rep.
resent constituencies wholly engaged in
wheat culture and the raising of cattle.
And between the multitude of bills which
affect peculiar localities and are of no
interest to Otbcr there ia daIav and in.
action. Sectional quarrels arise and
fractional fights ensue. The session is
passed and but little is accomplished
The diversity of interest and the person,
al strife have left the ~law.making body
in q snarl.
